Bellary: Sugarcane
farmers from the villages surrounding world heritage site Hampi on
Saturday laid siege to road leading to Hampi at Kamalapur town. They
want the government to allow them to sell their cane to a sugar factory
of their choice.

Farmers withdrew protest only after assurances from Assistant Commissioner P Sunil Kumar and Hospet Tahsildar Ramesh Konareddy that their grievances will be conveyed to the higher ups in the government.
Farmer leaders Samiullah and Prashanth Singh said the farmers will not allow the conduct of g Hampi Utsav if their demands are not fulfilled.
Farmers alleged the procurement price offered by the I.S.R. Sugar Factory, Hospet is lower than other sugar factories and the minimum support price fixed by the government.
They also alleged that I.S.R factory owes them Rs 9 crore and had not paid till date, even after the Karnataka High Court, Dharwad passed an order favouring farmers.
They alleged that by declaring ISR factory as a ‘sick industry’, the proprietors are availing all the benefits from the government and are continuing to exploit farmers.
Farmers here have been demanding that they be allowed to sell their cane to a sugar factory of their choice, where better price is offered. However, citing the Sugarcane (Control) Order 1966, farmers are compelled to sell cane to a factory which has got a stipulated reserved area of sugarcane farm.
